Courtesy of Moving Target this morning comes news from the CTC that the latest round of Highway Code changes have not been worded so as to effectively force cyclists off the roads onto cycle lanes and paths where they exist – to which, a big YAY!

For anyone who doubts the sense of staying on the road where cycle lanes and paths are provided, and can’t understand why they’re significantly more dangerous than mixing with the traffic, I can only invite you to Google for “cycle lanes uk” – which produces numerous examples and discussions of ill-considered and downright dangerous road “planning.”
